Music & Wellness
Music is a powerful tool that can be used to complement healthcare throughout the illness trajectory and increase the quality of life for patients, families and caregivers. A growing body of research demonstrates that music can help alleviate patients’ physical pain and reduce their stress and anxiety levels.
The Houston Symphony currently partners with The University of Texas MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital, The Periwinkle Arts In Medicine Program at Texas Children’s Cancer and Hematology Centers, and Houston Methodist to enrich patients’ lives through music.
